The district falls within the jurisdiction of four different regional councils; however the vast majority (73.74% by land area) of the district falls within the jurisdiction of Environment Waikato. The exceptions are the towns of Rangitaiki (14.31% of the district's land area), which lies within the Bay of Plenty region, Taharua (11.26%), which lies within the Hawke's Bay Region, and Te More (0.69%), which lies within the Manawatū-Whanganui region. Taupō is unique in being the only district in New Zealand so divided; no other district is divided between/among more than two regions, and most are not divided at all.

Turangi-Tongariroedit
The areas of Tūrangi and Tongariro are administered by the Taupō District Council. The area is represented at Council by one district Councillor.
Following the October 2022 local election, the Tūrangi-Tongariro Community Board (TTCB) was replaced with ward representation from one councillor, and a district-wide Māori ward, Te Papamārearea, with two councillors.
The area will also be supported by a Mana Whakahono a Rohe, a partnership agreement between Taupō District Council and Ngāti Tūrangitukua, the Ngāti Tūwharetoa hapū which holds mana whenua over Tūrangi township. As part of the Mana Whakahono, an equal co-governance committee made up of both Ngāti Tūrangitukua and council appointees will be set up.
To ensure the wider Tongariro area is also fairly represented, a representative group will be established by council and delegated the powers and functions previously held by the TTCB for that area.
